Crete-Sleeve®: Your Construction Industry Experts

Here we are demonstrating how to use the Crete-Sleeve® on a floor pour.

Cutting your own metal piping, plastic tubing or drilling your own holes is time consuming and labor intensive. Drilling doesn’t guarantee a smooth, round hole every time, and there is also the risk of cutting the rebar and reducing strength. Crete-Sleeve® Plastic Hole Forms can be attached in minutes using screws, nails or staples and are easily removed after the concrete has cured. They are reusable and won’t chip, dent, or break, and leave a smooth, uniform hole every time – saving you labor, time, and money!

Here we are demonstrating how to use the Crete-Sleeve® when your wall forms are metal.

As you can see, when the wall forms are metal and you can't use screws, nails or staples, you can attach the Crete Sleeve® to the rebar using wire to hold the sleeve in place. Another advantage of using Crete-Sleeve® over PVC piping is the Crete-Sleeve® allows some give so when you push the sleeve down it will be tight against each wall form, whereas, the PVC piping has no give and must be cut perfectly to the right size as to be tight against the metal wall form.

Here we are demonstrating how to install the Crete-Sleeve® on a precast plank.

When you have a hole coming through your precast plank, you can simply put our Crete-Sleeve® over the hole and fasten it to the plank and then pour your concrete. After the concrete has cured you can simply cut off the top of the sleeve leaving you a perfectly round hole.

Here we are demonstrating how to telescope the Crete-Sleeve® for a deeper slab.

When you are pouring a concrete slab that is greater than the overall length of the Crete-Sleeve®, you can simply telescope the Crete-Sleeve®. If the Crete-Sleeve® will be staying in the concrete, remove the top of one Crete-Sleeve® and remove the flange and top of the second Crete-Sleeve®. Snap the two together, then cut to the desired length. If the Crete-Sleeve® will be removed after the pour, cut the flange off of both Crete-Sleeves®.

I tried the Crete-Sleeve® for the first time in 2016 and found it very easy to use. I would highly recommend using this product because the Crete-Sleeve® did what it said it was going to do, saved time and money, it’s easy to attach and easy to remove and it left a perfect round hole… I would use it from here on out

Over the years we have been using PVC piping to penetrate the walls for electricians and plumbers. We were just introduced to the Crete-Sleeve® and tried it on a wall pour recently and it worked great. For this application, it took half the time to install and we were able to reuse the product.

The product is perfect for my needs. Unlike most of the sleeves out there, your sleeves are very straight. This provides for less of a gap to fill around the pipe. In today's business climate, the cost is in the labor. For electricians, all through penetrations must be fire stopped. It is much more difficult and time consuming to fill larger gaps than smaller gaps. This is the reason that we have been using this concrete sleeve for over 8 years.
